The housing crisis is endangering and killing vulnerable people, forcing them onto the streets, stripping them of all hope, pushing out of reach participation in society – and turning our cities into landfills. We can and must do better. @CityofSeattle @MayorofSeattle @GovInslee

The @EPA should really be involved in pushing forward solutions to the US housing crisis. The entire country is rapidly becoming a massive superfund-type site due to so many desperate people living rough with no hope. We can do better.

If you spend any time on foot in a US city you quickly realize how insane it is that we purposely design intersections to give cars a green light across pedestrians who have a walk signal. Sacrificing human safety outside of cars to slightly decrease delay for car drivers.

@FuckCarsReddit About to get honked at for not turning right on red even though there is a sign and you want to go straight anyway

Hey, so remember a few weeks ago how I was saying that nobody had hit the new #Seattle W Marginal Way SW PBL Jersey barriers and everything was in perfect shape @Spottnik ? Yikes. Between Andover and Dakota, 9 barriers displaced up to ~4 feet. SOS for that truck-crane @seattledot !

I rode around the south end of Lake Washington #Seattle today: Seward Park, Mercer Island, Eastrail, Renton, and back using some familiar trails: Green River Trail and Duwamish Trail. 42 miles. I rode in the lowest assistance setting, so got back home with 50% battery left. 🚲 😍

Oh my god, it’s so quiet and peaceful. I was passed by a pack of kids like 6-9 years old on bikes with no adult supervision whatsoever, having the time of their lives, and I might have shed a tear. We can have this every day all across #Seattle if we choose to not be cowards. 🥹

@miaasanomusic This is actually fantastic and I teared up at the idea of a bunch of people that don't know each other each contributing their part to make something amazing.

@kvlly I like how the last person was not having any of it and just added “Tablet”

@QasimRashid Qasim you misunderstood, when he said to show the law he meant to show it to _someone else_; he was in no way interested in seeing it as it hurt his fragile world view.

💯 – #depression and #anxiety are huge liars. I bought this art from @tonyposnanski but it's for one of YOU. Make any donation to @800273TALK and reply w/ receipt, I will match up to $5,000 total. One donor of $20+ will be chosen at random next Sunday to receive Tony's art. 💕

I thought these might be handy tips for those doing the #AdventOfCode challenges in Ruby. There are many Array operations which are equivalent to "image" manipulations when applied to a 2-dimensional Array-of-Arrays. Illustrated here with a 5x5 array of 'A'..'Y'. Have fun!

I was out today working on the bike path between #Seattle ’s Alki Trail and the Spokane Street bridge. Removing litter, moss, mud, and vines, and clearing the path drains. 🧹 ✨

@FuckCarsReddit This is not entirely fair. You can save a few minutes by taking public transit! You just have to walk 49 minutes + 5 minutes to take the bus for ~1 minute.

I rode with thousands (17k+?) cyclists through Montréal on an entirely closed to cars 15 mile route in the evening. Woooooot. Wild. 🚲 💪 @VeloQuebec Tour la Nuit 2024 ✅ Free Québec chocolate milk at the finish line because Québec.

Also: It’s wild (crazy really) that there is no station between University of Washington and Capitol Hill.

Why is the @SoundTransit U District station so huge? It’s like 90% wasted volume?
